Due to Birthday Bash and new interfaces we can't email you right now unless it's an emergency. No worries we will catch up later tonight.

Take part in the " I heart blu" campaign. Written testimonials no more! If you love blu simply let us know by holding a sign at some point in your daily life and send it to us. More on this later and where you could be featured. Now this is why I believe you are the craziest people alive!

Kristy Cardinal loves blu this much!

Notes: Blu will launch Miss Lilly in less than an hour. No delays, no excuses she doesn't like to be late. She is sophisticated, and sassy with no nonsense and direct approach. All disguised in a flowery boutique.

I hope you have a bottle of champagne because it's officially time to ditch work and have some fun.

In the meantime: Let's have fun with scavenger hunt #2! 4 people will win gift cards to www.nordstrom.com tonight. They will be virtually emailed to you so that you can shop away! BTW $100.00 each and the first person will win a FREE site.

5 photos must be sent to me

1. Go and buy an ice cream cone at McDonald's or any fast food chain. I must see you in the photo, ice cream and the cashier register.

2. go to your gas station and take a photo of the sign with the prices.

3. write on a sign what your best feature is and hold the sign down with your favorite pair of shoes and snap away!

4. take a photo in the mirror again but you must blow a big bubble. So don't forget you need gum.

5.

Send to kailee@bludomain.com

Note: Due to chaos at Blu headquarters, lack of sleep and excitement we are very slow today. So if you have sent us an email or have called we will get back to you very soon. Our priorities right now are to give you some pretty things to look at!

Celebrate with us today! Lots of fun stuff happening here today!

The pizza has been officially ordered and 10 people will be getting a little Blu love at lunchtime. If you happen to have your camera ready take a shot of the pizza guy and send it to me!

UPDATE: this is so much fun. We received about 1300 requests to receive pizza today in honor of our birthday. And we SURPRISED 10 people. Pizza #1 has just wrote in with pictures to let us know she received his pizzas! Jamie Weiss from Tennessee.
Woo-hoo!

#2 pizza has been delivered to Connecticut to Paola DiMeglio. (no camera)

#3 pizza has been delivered to Theresa R.S. Thurman in Kansas.(no camera)

#4 pizza has been delivered to Gretchen Miner from Colorado Springs, Co and her helpers

Pizza #5 has been delivered to Christine Tremoulet of Texas.

Pizza #6 has been delivered twice to. Christian Heurich from Smithsburg told the poor pizza guy he didn't order pizza and sent him on his way. Blu received a call saying the address was correct but the gentleman denied us! The good thing is that only minutes later he realized he must be a winner and recovered his 2 large pizzas & Sprite.
